Crazy Cuban

Mark Cuban and others in a group of investors have a simple idea: "We think there is more demand for pro football than supply." So, they're looking at the possibility of forming a new league that would be stocked with sub-2nd round draft pick players. Obviously others have had the same idea, but's it's been less and less successful each time it's been tried. The AFL was relatively successful and became part of the NFL. But the WWE/NBC XFL? Not so much, all that's left is Rod Smart and the memory of the "He Hate Me" jersey. The Arena league has a chance to really carve out a niche, but a direct competitor to the NFL? Maybe I lack imagination, but I just don't see it working out. Unless all eight of the teams in the proposed league have monkey-related names, then it would be like printing money.
